Emergency appeal 1 : Storm and Cyclone

Emergency Appeal n° MDRMZ009 GLIDE n° TC-2012-000008-MOZ 22 February 2012

This Emergency Appeal seeks CHF 2,728,741 in cash, kind, or services to support the Mozambique Red Cross Society (CVM) to assist 14,000 households (70,000 beneficiaries) for 12 months, and will be completed by the end of February, 2013. A Final Report will be made available by May 2013 (three months after the end of the operation).

In addition, the IFRC is soliciting CHF 62,373 to cover the cost of Shelter Cluster coordination. Funds will be allocated to this component when partners expressly indicate their interest.

CHF 297,349 was allocated from the IFRC Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) to support this operation. Unearmarked funds to replenish DREF A group of volunteers distributing relief supplies to the are encouraged. affected people in Maganja da Costa District, Zambézia Province. According to the Instituto Nacional de Gestão de Calamidades (INGC), the government body for disaster management, 40 people are reported to have died and approximately 120,000 people were affected as a result of the recent tropical storm DANDO and FUNSO. The Council of Ministers met on the 2nd of February to discuss the impact of the natural disasters that affected the country in January in , Gaza, Inhambane, Zambézia and Nampula provinces. The INGC also confirmed that the impact of the disasters caused destruction of infrastructure including 30,000 houses, 565 classrooms and 31 health facilities. CVM participated in the multi sectoral assessments undertaken to determine the impact of the storm and subsequent cyclone.

While the government had not declared a state of emergency nor officially called for international assistance, it has agreed to appeal for international support for the CVM and this Emergency Appeal is being launched accordingly based on a request from the CVM and with the information available at this time reflecting the initial assessment from the IFRC-deployed Field Assessment and Coordination Team (FACT).

This appeal includes the relief and recovery activities to be undertaken in Gaza and Zambézia provinces which were among the worst affected. The operation will last for twelve months and will target a total of 14, 000 households with relief assistance during the emergency and recovery phases. It is anticipated that the operational approach and strategy will be updated and adjusted to meet the evolving situation.

The situation

The Mozambique’s National Institute of Meteorology weather forecast for 2012 projected that for the period January to March there would be normal to above normal rainfall throughout the country with the exception of Cabo Delgado, Nampula and part of the northern province of Zambézia. The government contingency plan 2 projected that in the worst case scenario, approximately 16,861 households would be affected floods and cyclones in 2012. However, after the path of the tropical storm Dando in mid-January 2012 and the tropical cyclone Funso, the reality surpassed the worst case scenario of the Government contingency plan.

Since mid January 2012, Mozambique has been hit by two tropical storms. Tropical Storm Dando, which hit the southern provinces of Maputo City, Maputo, Gaza (Chokwe and Xai-Xai districts) and Inhambane (Zavala district) in mid-January, affected some 120,000 people. The situation was exacerbated by the heavy rainfall that was also experienced in and Swaziland, resulting in an increase in the water levels in Maputo, Incomati and Limpopo basins in southern Mozambique. As a result of the heavy rains, the National Road Number 1 which links with South Africa was damaged (80 metres wide and 3 metres deep) at the “3 de Fevereiro” area in Maputo Province (Manhiça District). This affected the movement of people and goods.

Tropical Cyclone Funso, a category 4 cyclone with winds ranging from 166 to 212km/h and heavy rainfall, hit the Mozambican coastline between 20 and 22 January 2012, affecting approximately 67,000 people in Zambézia Province. Multi-sectoral assessment teams which included the Mozambique Red Cross, undertook needs assessments in the field. A considerable number of houses, schools and health centres were damaged in the districts of Nicoadala, Quelimane city, Chinde, Pebane, Maganja da Costa, Namacura, Gurue and Mocuba. Cyclone Funso weakened on the 28 of January and the winds dissipated in the in a south-easterly direction.

The Government declared an Orange Alert to allow humanitarian players to prepare interventions or provide any required assistance to the affected people. CVM made available relief items which included shelter kits, plastic sheets, chlorine tablets, tarpaulins, kitchen sets, mosquito nets, blankets, bathing soaps, jerry cans, buckets, latrine slabs and family tents as part of its relief efforts.

Coordination and partnerships

In Mozambique, the Government leads the overall coordination of disaster response, through the INGC. The Mozambique Red Cross is part of the daily coordination meetings held at the Disaster Management Technical Council (CTGC) as part of monitoring and information sharing exercise at national, provincial and district level. This is to ensure effective support for Government-led coordination mechanisms.

The Humanitarian Country Team is the coordination platform for partner institutions (UN agencies, NGOs and Red Cross Movement), focusing on common strategic and policy issues related to humanitarian action in country. These agencies have been working through the cluster approach in Mozambique for some time now.

The CVM, supported by IFRC and the French Red Cross Platform for Disaster Response in the Indian Ocean (PIROI), is working closely and in coordination with the INGC and HCT members to provide humanitarian assistance. IFRC supported a DREF of CHF 297,349 to meet the initial needs of 4,000 affected people. At the national level, the National Society (with the support of the IFRC) and UN HABITAT are co-leading the Shelter Cluster coordination (CVM during the preparedness and response phases and UN-HABITAT during early recovery). The Shelter Cluster has been active on a continuous basis in Mozambique and CVM is now planning to recruit a dedicated local officer to take on key tasks in support of the cluster. The Inter-Agency Shelter Coordination budget in this appeal reflects the cost of this CVM local staff and related support costs to the cluster. It also includes the cost of a coaching mission from an experienced Shelter Cluster Coordinator to provide orientation and on-the-job training as the new CVM staff settles into the post, as well as other costs in support of country level coordination activities, including the development and maintenance of a dedicated website1.

Red Cross and Red Crescent action

A 4-person RDRT team (coordinator; water and sanitation; reporting & communications; logistician) was deployed to Mozambique along with a member of the PIROI. A 3-person IFRC FACT was also deployed (team leader; health; shelter) to carry out a detailed assessment. The information generated by the RDRT and FACT has been instrumental in informing this Emergency Appeal and the operational strategy. Further multi- sectoral assessments are underway and the operational approach will be adjusted as needed, including a revised Appeal.

During the first days of the operation, the following activities were undertaken by CVM:

• Activation of the CVM Emergency Response Task Force and holding of daily coordination meetings in order to share information from the provincial branches for decision making on possible intervention. • Participation in daily INGC coordination meetings at all levels and Humanitarian Country Team (HTC) meetings within the framework of the cluster approach. • Participation in joint assessment missions in the affected areas. • CVM has been providing assistance to the affected population since the beginning of the disaster with distribution of non-food items (NFIs), provision of first aid, health promotion awareness sessions, safe drinking water, hygiene promotion and transfer of injured people to the nearest health facilities. • CVM branches and volunteers are also partnering with other organizations (Oxfam, Concern, Save the Children and Care) to implement relief distributions.

Relief items that were distributed include those that had been pre-positioned by CVM in previous operations as well as the relief items made available by PIROI/French RC in the 2011 emergency response operation. Up to date 2,221 shelter tool kits, 1,765 tarpaulins, 5,375 mosquito nets, 2,050 kitchen sets, 2,916 soap bars and 1,284 blankets have already been distributed. The table below provides a detailed breakdown of distributions.

The CVM has also provided safe drinking water in Zambézia province (4,000 litres), Gaza (656,091 litres) and in Maputo province assisted 5,000 people that were trapped in the destroyed road with safe drinking water. CVM staff and volunteers also undertake water chlorination activities at the water points and during household visits.

More than 200 CVM volunteers have been mobilized and are participating in the emergency response operation in Maputo, Gaza and Zambézia provinces, and they are involved in assessment, relief, health and watsan activities. 4

The needs

The initial DREF operation targeted 4,000 households in the flood affected regions. Given the increased needs, this Emergency Appeal will include an additional 10,000 households, making a total of 14,000 displaced households.

The target number of beneficiaries might change after detailed needs assessment is carried out by the CVM, RDRT and FACT and may require a subsequent revised appeal. Vulnerability mapping has been carried out to highlight the targeted areas based on needs. The selection will make use of the CVM selection criteria based on needs and level of vulnerability and community participatory approaches will be applied. Joint verifications and coordination with other stakeholders will be done on a regular basis during the operation to avoid duplications and ensure that gaps are covered.

The distribution of relief items to affected households will depend on specific needs identified after assessment and verification of beneficiaries.

Immediate needs: The affected households are in immediate need of shelter, food, blankets, jerry cans, bed nets, safe drinking water and sanitation facilities to reduce the impact of floods for the next twelve months. The DREF funds are being used to start the operation targeting 4,000 households, however, the number of displaced people has increased to 30,000 households according to INGC and therefore a decision has been taken to seek international assistance through an Emergency Appeal to support an additional 10,000 households.

Medium-term needs: The priority medium term needs are related to shelter, rehabilitation of damaged water sources and latrines, and promotion of health and hygiene in the affected communities and the restoration of livelihoods which in the affected area are mainly related to agriculture. About 70% of the population living in these areas depends on subsistence farming. The destruction of agricultural land, the damage to crops, seeds, livestock and social economic infrastructure and local markets experienced in the affected regions and the depletion of food stocks due to the previous floods in 2011 indicate that the population is currently less resilient to the current floods and water logging. CVM will focus its operations towards the restoration of livelihoods, the reinforcement of coping mechanisms and strengthening community resilience. This is informed by previous experience where floods caused by cyclones and storms in 2007 and 2011 especially, affected agricultural production.

According to the CVM and other stakeholders reports, the majority of the households will not be able to recover without support, they lost crops and capital assets, deterioration of sanitary conditions and contamination of water sources. The local health authorities are concerned that the wet environment may trigger disease outbreaks. Lack of proper housing and clothing exposes affected community to adverse weather and illness. Most households were living in poverty before the disaster and do not have access to social services, neither will they be able to afford the purchase of agricultural inputs. If their recovery is not supported the impact of the disaster will have long term effects in many of the affected communities 5

increasing their vulnerability, limiting their sources of income and potentially increasing the number of food insecure people living in extreme poverty.

The proposed operation

This appeal includes the relief and recovery activities to be undertaken in Gaza and Zambézia provinces which were among the worst affected by DANDO and FUNSO Cyclones. The operation will last for twelve months and will target a total of 14, 000 households with relief assistance during the emergency and recovery phase, especially in areas that have not been reached by other agencies.

In , CVM envisages assisting 4,600 households in Gaza province (Chibuto, Chókwe and Guijá districts) out of 9,762 households affected. In Zambézia province, CVM will target 9,400 households in Nicoadala, Maganja da Costa, Namacurra and Quelimane districts out of 17,082 households affected. This takes into account assistance being provided by government and other humanitarian agencies also the implementing capacity of CVM.

In order to provide a comprehensive package, CVM/Federation intend to combine relief, shelter and WatSan health and livelihoods activities to better serve the needs of the targeted affected communities so that the impact of the support is more effective and increase their resilience to future disasters. This integrated holistic operation will be implemented through CVM’s network of first aid and community based volunteers in the identified areas. This approach will continue after the relief phase, the most vulnerable communities will be selected to receive the integrated approach “package”. The selection criteria includes most vulnerable needs which remain high, no other actors, accessibility, presence of CVM in the community and its implementing capacity. This integrated approach will enable the affected communities to recover faster.

The beneficiaries will be supplied with non-food items such as sleeping mats, blankets, jerry cans, personal and laundry soap and mosquito nets to replenish their household equipment. As part of this appeal, IFRC will pay particular attention to the replenishment of CVM stocks. Therefore, part of the relief items to be obtained through this appeal are to be used for purposes of replenishing stocks, taking into consideration that the cyclone season is not over until April; pre-positioned stocks should be available for CVM to be able to provide emergency response to potential additional disasters during this season as it is the case of the current alert for the Giovanna cyclone.

CVM with the support of Partner National Societies and Federation have been implementing Disaster Risk Reduction and Disaster Preparedness programmes in different parts of the country. The impact of this programme has contributed to the low number of casualties and injured people in this emergency as communities are now better aware and prepared before a disaster and the majority evacuate the potential flood and cyclone prone areas when they receive the early warning alerts in coordination and leadership of the Government.

In response to the increased need for shelter, CVM intends to support the shelter needs of the affected population and target beneficiaries through community based shelter and understanding shelter as a process. Initially 5,500 households are provided with emergency shelter materials (tarpaulins and tools) and later on a housing process will be supported through the provision of technical support, social mobilization and construction materials for 500 most vulnerable households. “Building back better” and the indigenous approach will guide the shelter process. A number of demonstrative housing prototypes will be constructed for the most vulnerable so that can be taken as a model for the rest of the community. CVM has previous experience in this type of projects in some parts of the country. Recommendations and standards set up by the Shelter Cluster (with the CVM as lead agency) will be taken into consideration when designing the shelter response. At the national level, CVM is the lead cluster agency, during the emergency phase this function will be reinforced with additional human resource as most disaster management staff will be engaged in emergency operations.

IFRC will continue supporting CVM health activities in the operation. Efforts will be concentrated on first aid activities, refresher trainings for CVM volunteers as well as hygiene promotion and health awareness to prevent communicable diseases. Water and sanitation activities will focus on ensuring improved access to safe water for people sheltered in accommodation centres.

Health and WatSan include relief and recovery activities aimed to reduce morbidity in the affected communities, including first aid, distribution of safe drinking water using water purification tablets or preferable Certeza (a liquid chlorination agent locally available and known in the communities as it is promoted by the Government safe drinking water campaigns); promotion of good health and hygiene practices, rehabilitation and/or disinfection of damaged water sources and waste management.

Given that the country is traditionally affected by storms and cyclones, the majority of the displaced people usually resettle in safer and higher areas but continue cultivating their crops along the rivers. In the recovery phase, CVM will focus on assisting the re-settled by improving their livelihoods and developing community- based disaster management systems. This will be part of the DRR initiatives currently underway and supported by Participating National Societies (PNSs). Special focus will be on the most vulnerable groups such as the elderly, single mothers, households with more than three children aged under five years and people with disabilities, among others.

Communications – Advocacy and Public information CVM with technical support from the regional and the Zone office will conduct awareness and publicity activities including field trips to sensitise the public and media on the situation on the ground and the humanitarian response by CVM. They will also work with programme teams to develop beneficiary communications that support programme objectives in decreasing the vulnerability of the affected populations. Volunteers will also disseminate the principles and values of the Movement during their response operation. The communications activities outlined in this appeal are aimed at supporting the National Society to improve their communications capacities and develop appropriate communications tools and products to support effective operations. The communications team will work to produce regular updates on the operation and capture stories from the affected communities to highlight the impact at a local level. These activities are closely coordinated with the Communications department of the International Federation’s Regional in Gaborone and the Zone Office communication team based in Addis Ababa.

Capacity of the National Society CVM as part of the International Red Cross Movement works with several partner Red Cross societies including the Danish, Spanish, German, Finnish, Norwegian, Italian, French RC/PIROI and Netherlands Red Cross Societies in implementing the integrated community based disaster risk reduction programmes and complimentary programmes. This has made the National Society well equipped to respond to community health challenges, food security and disasters. The CVM has considerable experience in implementing DRR, health programmes, WASH activities, food security activities and disaster response in all parts of the country. CVM relies on a 6,000 volunteer base within the communities. Volunteers will assist in monitoring activities and data capturing for onward submission to CVM Disaster Management Coordinator for full reporting to partners. One refresher training will be conducted for the CVM National Disaster Response Team (NDRT).

Capacity of the IFRC In addition to managing grants, the IFRC will provide technical support to CVM and strengthen support in the areas of health, WatSan, shelter, relief, food security, nutrition and livelihoods, logistics; communications; finance; M & E, and reporting and also technical advice and training in relevant areas. Technical and strategic back-up is also available from the IFRC Regional in Gaborone and Nairobi Zone Office and from Partner National Societies where required.

The IFRC’s main programmatic and operational areas of focus are Disaster Management, Health and Care and promotion of Principles and Values. Moreover, in all of its activities the IFRC seeks to strengthen the role of the National Society to increase its ability to respond, as well as the scope and quality of its humanitarian work. With regard to Food Security and Disaster Management, the focus is on ensuring integration of emergency response with longer term rehabilitation and development. Additionally disaster risk reduction strategies will be incorporated. Support for communications, monitoring, evaluation and reporting is also provided through the regional and Zone office thus ensuring that adequate technical support is available.
